  • 114 - Jacob Spjut (Elite is not a dirty word)

    Jacob Spjut from Prysm body piercing in Iowa comes on the show to talk about the difference between "elite" piercers, and "elitist" piercers. Jacob also lays out a simple concept. Piercers can move from safe to safer with their work practices, but they should have a realistic concept of how minimum standards are the line between safe and unsafe.

  • 113 - Jason King (23rd St.) + Jess Rose

    Would you think that one of the busiest studios in the US would be in Oklahoma City? 23rd Street Body Piercing routinely performs more piercings in one day than some shops do in a week or a month. I got a chance to talk with Jason King of 23rd Street and hear what logistics and concepts go into a shop capable of performing 150 safe piercings in a day. PLUS a bonus chat with Australian piercer Jess Rose.
